About this learning event

“Towards Integration of Fiscal Frameworks and Structural Reforms in Bosnia and Herzegovina” is aimed at strengthening the capacities of institutions in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BIH) to prepare and submit the Economic Reform Programme (ERP) for the period of 2021 – 2023, that is aligned with the European Commission (EC) Guidance for preparation of ERP for the period of 2021 – 2023 and the EC Assessment of the ERP. It represents an extension of the activity that was initiated in January 2021 and concluded in July 2021.

 

The objective of this extended activity is to facilitate a process of
